IDEAs Rewired #4: Can students use GenAI?


Listen Later

By now, most universities across the UK have implemented guidance on AI usage. But do students actually know what it says?

This week, Jay DesLauriers, a Teaching Fellow and an AI Futurist in Education at Imperial, and Heather Mack, Director of Strategy and Operations at the IDEA Lab, join Lok Yee Liu to dissect current and future guidance around AI in higher education. Plus, Jay and Heather use Imperial Business School’s traffic light system to challenge students’ perceptions of when they can and can’t use generative AI.

Follow the IDEA Lab at Imperial Business School on LinkedIn for further insights into innovative educational technologies and experiences. You can also check out the IDEA Lab website.
